PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a color image recording device that an intermediate transfer part has a structure miniaturized/simplified, and the maintenance property is satisfactory. SOLUTION: An intermediate transfer belt unit 2 is constituted so that an intermediate transfer belt 3 and a first transfer roller 4 composed of an elastic body are housed therein, and it is provided with a pair of rollers 16 for keeping a nipping quantity constant between the intermediate transfer belt 3 and a photoreceptor 11, and moreover contact/separation with/from the photoreceptor 11 is repeated. The image formed on the photoreceptor 11, transferred to the intermediate transfer belt 3, and further transferred on recording paper. The intermediate transfer belt unit 2 is inserted in the device from the front of device and allow the intermediate transfer belt 3 to be arranged opposite to the photoreceptor 11. The intermediate transfer belt 3, is brought in press contact with the photoreceptor 11 from the opposite side of an exposure position on the photoreceptor 11, and the press contact direction of the intermediate transfer belt 3, with respect to the photoreceptor 11 and the press contact direction of the third transfer roller 12 with regard to the intermediate transfer roller 3 are approximately the same direction.
